Mohegan Sun Wins National Awards For Dining and Entertainment
It really surprises me when I meet someone from Connecticut that has never been to Mohegan Sun or Foxwoods. I understand that some still have the notion that these incredible destinations are nothing but beautifully designed slot machines that vacuum all of your spending money away, but they're so much more than just casinos.
In fact, Mohegan Sun has just won a National Award from the Academy of Country Music recognizing Mohegan Sun Arena as the "Casino of the Year", it's Mohegan Sun Arena's eight time being named by the ACM and it's members (Artists, Musicians, Producers, Talent Buyers, and Promoters) as the best out of all of the casinos in the United States. The ACM Casino of the Year award.
Mohegan Sun was also selected recently as a Tripadvisor Traveler's Choice Award recipient for 2024, and will proudly display the badge they've earned on tripadvisor.com's search engine. The Tripadvisor Traveler's Choice Award is given to the world's most popular attractions based on reviews and ratings collected over a one-year span. Only the Top 10% of destinations worldwide earn the Tripadvisor Traveler's Choice Award.
On a local scale, Mohegan Sun cleaned up on the CT Insider Best of Connecticut awards for 2024. winning the categories of Best Music Venue, Best Fine Dining, Best Casino Activity, and Best Casino Casual Dining.
The new season of Hell's Kitchen, recently filmed at Foxwoods, has just been announced to premiere in September. Will that swing the national eye back across from Mohegan Sun this Fall? We'll see.
